This blog shows my recycled denim creations, along with tutorials for items I have designed myself. I collect old jeans (a strange collection, I know!) and cut them up to make bags of varying sizes and shapes. I then sell these to raise money for The Sure Foundation, which feeds starving children in the village of Utange, near Mombasa, in Kenya.

Pencil case

I am restocking small items at the moment. More to come as I received yesterday a new supply of small zips. I love Ebay! I like to include items of a wide range of prices on my stalls, so I do make lots of small items which are easy and quick to produce. These pencil cases are an example. They are unlined, and made of scraps. These are from 3" squares - the pieces of the jeans which are left over from projects using long strips or larger squares. I'm pleased with how they came out, and they are cheap enough for children to afford - and for Mums not to worry about if they get lost!

(Blogger is doing something weird - I swear this photo is the right way up on my files, but I can't get it to display properly here!)
